"When I grow up, I'll marry you."

Those were the innocent words Jason'd said to the first ever crush of his life. They sounded like some child play, but at the time, he meant it, because he said them to you. Back when he was still living in Crime Alley, you were his only friend, the only person he didn't resent, the person he'd always come to when he was left outside, the person who'd share food and bed in your home with him so he wouldn't be cold or alone. You two didn't have the best living conditions, but you had each other, and it was enough for him to make that promise.

So when Bruce took him in, he was on cloud nine, finally having a better life, which also meant a chance that he could actually bring you happiness. But of course, luck was the last thing Jason Peter Todd was born with, before he could even see you again, he died. His own kind heart got him killed, brutally. The sinister laugh of Joker and the ticking of the bomb etched into his brain forever.

Then as if it wasn't enough, he came back wrong, vengeful and angry, turned into a cold-blooded killer for what he believed was justice. It was messed up, he was messed up, ruining every nice thing he'd ever had, and even when he came around, it could never be the same. If only he could go back to when things were simple, running around with you on the streets, having a good relationship with Bruce, thinking being Robin was magic.

At this point, he firmly believed that you'd probably moved on, forget about him, about that silly promise he made but couldn't keep. He found out you got married. The piece of information killed him inside, but he had it coming, he'd failed you, he'd lost his chance.

Yet, fate always had a plan to make Jason suffer. Two years later, he ran into you again, taking all his courage to talk to you, and when he asked about you marriage, he was baffled. You said you got a divorced. "Wait, what?" A flicker of hope could be felt in Jason's heart, but he quickly crumble it. No, stupid, he didn't deserve it anymore.
